1. I would make it to where you cannot use a picture as your signature. I would also either limit the amount of words that can be utilized as a signature or altogether take it out. They are taking up a lot of space. As you may already be aware, a signature is something you typically utilize for a professional email. If anything we should be using our first names (only) for our signature.

If you don't like how people use the allowable signature space, you can change your settings so you don't see signatures.
In general settings scroll down to "thread display options" and uncheck "show signatures". Then scroll to the bottom and click "save changes".

Not possible with our forum platform

I tend to agree with this because it can at times be helpful to know the age of the person you are responding to but unfortunately our current platform does not allow a forced setting at sign up (that I am aware of).

I like the fact that OnceFallen is able to share that he is our "Idiot In Chief" rather than just a regular ol' boring senior member!
; )

I mean....seriously...how else would we know????

Blue ladybug, fearless leader of the orange kitty battalion! She loves orange tabbies and is innocent as decreed by Pottersclay who states that Scripture says that all people who love orange tabbies are innocent. Truthtalk says that God created the world, and then He created wonderful orange tabbies. Joefizz has elected blue ladybug as captain of the brave orange kitty ​army!

Those are my three basic suggestions and I know they would clean up the chat.

The signature is a unique creation, as long as you can do it without exceeding the character limit. What's wrong with a picture in the signature. It would be nice to know the age of the member but I would not make that a requirement. You said the everyone should display their age but you neglected to display your own age.

I was wondering about that too.

Jay, I was just curious as to why you'd want everyone to show their age, when we don't know yours?

Just asking as an honest question...

If it feels like you can't feel anything, are you still feeling something?
